Chapter 20 What Kind of Strength Does Li Wei Have?

The shock and uproar at the scene were far from over. The large companies’ “scouts” hidden in the crowd had just recovered from the shock and started speaking to each other.

“Li Wei from Fei He High School! Hurry up! Put this name on our observation list! A genius has appeared in Fei He City!”

“I’ll investigate this kid’s background later. He’s most likely a disciple of some big family. However, he had hidden it too deeply! We didn’t even know about this!”

“We didn’t see his move clearly! That punch was like lightning! There’s no way to judge the vitality value at all. What should I write in the report?”

“What’s there to write? A one-hit kill meant that it must be above 8.3! It’s already shocking enough!”

“No! We must have a detailed Vitality Index. What if we under-offer our contract price and he is snatched away by other companies?”

“He was a dark horse! I think we have to offer him a contract of the same amount as the top ten!”

“Top ten? Are you kidding me? This was only one punch! It means that he hasn’t used his full strength!”

“Do we have the authority to do so? What do we do now?”

“Ah! Don’t care so much! Hurry up and wait for him at the lounge! We can’t let other companies get in touch with him first!”

The “scouts” sent by some prestigious universities also seemed to have found a treasure and immediately took out their phones to remind their colleagues.

“It’s been more than ten years since I’ve seen such a talented student before!”

“Listen! Quickly inform the principal to prepare an Admission Notice! We’re going to have Li Wei!”

“Also, inform the Commerce department to decide on Li Wei’s admission benefits immediately. Set it higher!”

“Investigate his family, starting with his parents. First, we must close this deal. Then, they can state their conditions!”

“It’s unimaginable! This child was simply a treasure. He must still be hiding his strength. It was too terrifying. How much vitality energy does he have that he hasn’t used yet?”

It was just as Li Wei had predicted before the match. The big companies and prestigious universities that came to witness the Star of hope were not only shocked by his strength, but for a moment, it was even more impossible for them to guess how much his vitality was. They could only keep discussing without knowing the result.

Therefore, when they were planning to negotiate the treatment to avoid being snatched away by other competitors, they could only increase his benefits to a higher level.

Everything was going according to Li Wei’s plan. He wanted these people to be in a state of doubt, speculation, and debate. Only in this way would his value soar as the game progressed.

At this moment, the entire Fei He High School was in an uproar when they heard the results. However, on the rooftop, not only that the students who took part in the gambling event feel heartache because they had made the wrong bet, but they also felt a lingering fear in their hearts.

In their previous school life, they had never seriously taken Li Wei, who had the worst grades and would even bully him. On the contrary, they even wanted Li Wei to die to win money. Their legs gave way as they thought of this, and they fell to the ground.

The strength that Li Wei had just displayed had far exceeded the best results in the school. What if Li Wei held a grudge against their bet and took revenge on them when he returned?

With his strength, he could probably sweep the entire grade by himself. Amid the panic, some people even regretted not building a good relationship with Li Wei.

“I don’t think I’ve offended him before, have

I?”

“When did he have such a terrifying amount of vitality?”

“What kind of joke was this? Li Wei’s vitality is only 0.35!”

“D*mn it! Did Li Wei cheat? How is this

possible?”

“Will he take revenge on us when he comes back?”

Suddenly, these guys were shrouded in fear for Li Wei. However, what they said was simply too childish because there was naturally no way of “cheating” in the collision of vitality.

These students had all bet that the competition would end in the first round and had made the right bet. However, ironically, the ending was completely reversed. Instead, Li Wei finished off Jia Yueping in the first round. In other words, all these students had lost their bets.

On the other hand, as the beneficiary, Han Chong did not show the slightest joy of a banker. On the contrary, he stared at Li Wei on the screen and revealed a fearful look. To be frightened by Li Wei’s strength was one thing. However, the most crucial thing now was that Li Wei was betting on a 1:100 odds.

A few seconds later, his face suddenly showed an angry expression, and then he yelled loudly, “This kid has tricked me!”

He recalled Li Wei’s steady and calm look when he placed his bet and his arrogant expression at that time. Han Chong felt a slap on his face. It was too embarrassing. Previously, he thought Li Wei was a notably weak student in his year, so he took Li Wei’s seemingly impossible bet without hesitation. That was because 0.35 points of vitality were insufficient to win the competition.

Yet now, Li Wei suddenly had such a powerful vitality. It only meant that he had been deliberately hiding his true strength. His goal was to “trick” him for the one million bucks!

One had to know that the majority who participated in the entire gambling house were students. The money they had was very limited. Even if he won all their money, it was far from one million bucks.

In other words, it did not matter whether Li Wei could win the competition or not. Han Chong felt that his intelligence was being insulted, like a bloodthirsty shark being fooled by a small fish.

However, he felt even more humiliated because he could not stop this bet. His family had been operating in Fei He City for many years. If they did not acknowledge Li Wei’s bet and word got out, their family’s reputation would be tarnished.

The mafia valued rules and reputation the most. He would rather go home and get a beating from his father than do that. However, this was also what he was most afraid of.

If others knew that he was betting with a person with a vitality of 6.4 points on whether the other party would win the competition and the odds were 1:100, then he would become the laughingstock of everyone in the mafia world. He would be the most stupid banker ever.

“Why did I agree to his request?” Thinking of this, Han Chong punched the concrete wall beside him. He felt so regretful. Right now, he could only hope that Li Wei was short-lived and could not win the competition. Only then would he have a chance to save his face.
